Start Up Procedure (cont)
The unit should fire before 5 attempts however, after 5
unsuccessful attempts, the module will lock itself out and the
LED light next to “Lock Out (error)” will be illuminated. Turn off
the unit and wait 5 minutes to allow the gas to dissipate. Retry
to start the generator.
NOTE: If starting the unit for the first time or after a
new tank is connected, make sure to “purge” the gas
line of any air to ensure gas is flowing to the
burners.
Once the burners ignite, look under the unit and confirm the
flame is blue and consistent and resembles a flower or 6 point
star.
!!WARNING!! Power the unit off immediately if the flame
appears yellow or excessively large. DO NOT OPERATE
with yellow, excessively large, or small “lazy” blue flames.
If the flame appears yellow or too large, verify the correct gas
supply is being used and that the supplied gas regulator is
being used. High pressure or incorrect gas type may increase
flames to dangerous heights.
If the flame is blue but appears small, verify the correct gas
supply is being used (if LP, verify tank level is not low) and
that the supplied gas regulator is being used. Low pressure or
low LP tank may cause small or "lazy" blue flames.
After the generator has been tested at full capacity, connect
the APCG4 to a compatible controller or timer.
!!WARNING!! The APCG4 produces up to almost 11,000
BTU’s of heat at full capacity. Verify the area around the
APCG4 is not getting too hot for the surroundings.
